Paddy Power Poker today launches the September Surge promotion, which allows players to fast-track their progress to the Paddy Power Poker Pro online grand finals in October. The highest ranked players are automatically entered into a tournament with a €60,000 sponsorship package for the winner, with €30,000 and €10,000 packages to be won in tournaments for lower ranked players.

During September Surge, new or existing players can jump five C*A*S*H VIP levels in less than a month by meeting a Paddy Points target. C*A*S*H VIP rank is usually determined using the previous three months’ play and a full month’s play is required before players can be promoted; however September Surge allows for the Paddy Points earned over the course of the month (or part thereof) to determine promotion on October 1st.

“September Surge gives every single paddypowerpoker.com player the chance to compete for the very best prizes Paddy Power Poker Pro has to offer,” said Paddy Power, Communications Manager for paddypowerpoker.com. “We’re putting €100,000 up for grabs and we’d like as many players as possible to try and become the very first Paddy Power Poker Pro and win the big €60,000 package – a couple of weeks’ play will fast-track you to a chance at poker stardom!”

Players who are awarded Captain, Major, Colonel and General rank (VIP Levels 3 – 6) on October 1st will also earn the monthly bonus associated with that rank.
